 Our team is trying to adapt our plugin to the new admin color schemes. It
 would be great if we could have generic CSS class declarations that allow
 us to apply the current scheme's background/text colors to our elements.

 Something like

 .admin-color-flat .sidebar-background-color{ background-color: #.... }
 .admin-color-vineyard .sidebar-background-color{ background-color: #.... }

 This would allow plugin developers to leverage those schemes without
 having to reinvent the wheel every time, and would make their plugins
 adapt to any third-party color scheme people may be using on their site.

 WordPress already adds the current color schema class to the body tag. But
 then I don't see anything in the CSS that I could use to recycle, let's
 say, the admin sidebar current background color and use it as the
 background color for my metabox headers. Yes, I could do this in jQuery,
 but I was hoping for a pure CSS approach.
